After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Heat rolled past the Kings 120-84. Heat's scorers couldn't be contained. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Heat pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
